Mixtral-8x22B

Elite Open-Source AI for Scalable Performance

What is Mixtral-8x22B?

Mixtral-8x22B is a state-of-the-art Sparse Mixture of Experts (MoE) language model from Mistral AI, composed of 8 expert models with 22 billion parameters each, totaling 141B parameters. At runtime, only 2 experts are activated per input, resulting in just 39B active parameters per forward pass, offering a powerful blend of efficiency and intelligence.
This architecture achieves GPT-4-class performance while keeping compute costs dramatically lower—and it's released under a permissive open-weight license for full customization, deployment, and research use.
